CALIGRA FAQ
Caligra is a web publishing tool specifically geared towards people who do not have access to a front-end language such as ASP, Pearl or PHP, or access to a back-end database such as MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server or PostGre.

Caligra is a web publishing tool coded in Delphi and the Borland Database Engine Paradox. It creates and maintains local Paradox tables.

Caligra contains everything essential to creating and maintaining a website, including Topics, Sections, Main Menu, File Categories, Files and User Defined Pages. It contains user codes, theme codes and color codes allowing the user to fully customize the look and feel of their websites. It contains complete layout sections for header, footer, page layout, block layout, sectional layout, file category and file layout and user defined page layouts.

Caligra has built in FTP access allowing the user to publish blogged/news items and then immediatly FTP those items to their ISP.

Caligra requires only that you have Windows XP and an ISP.

Caligra comes with a built in template that allows you to get a start. From there you can customize your own website and even publish your own themes for other Caligra users.

  • Blocks are right and left "Blocks" of links, pictures or shortcuts. Caligra keeps a full database of blocks for you allowing as many as you like. Place them on the left or the right with the ability to move them up and down.
  • Config Layout has a full layout section complete with all user defined codes and internal HTML codes. Once your layout is set up, just add news items, topics, sections and blocks to your site and click the publish button. When you click publish, Caligra takes your news, blocks and sections and formats them the way you decide with any layout you want.
  • Current News allows you to maintain a website with current news and never have to actually log onto your website. Simple click NEW, then add your news story. Once done, click PUBLISH then click FTP and your website is updated. Need a new topic? Quick add a topic or click the TOPICS button.
  • The Database screen allows you to fully manipulate your news data at a glance. Either with the selected options on the screen or enter your own SQL statements. You can sort, group, delete, modify and move your news items around.
  • Topics allows you to categorize your news by topic. This makes it easier for users to find old topics by using the topics.html file.
